Sam’s favorite part of her job is connecting her staff and students:
“I really enjoy when one of our kids makes a bond with our staff and you can see enrichment happening on both sides. We all have fun every single day in Evergreen club, but seeing that kind of safe space being created and reinforced intentionally is what I think makes our programs special.” Contact information: Samantha Nichols, 412-289-4346 snichols@iu28.org
